A tragic incident in Delhi's Najafgarh area has left a family devastated, as a house collapsed due to a fallen tree during heavy rains. The incident claimed the lives of a 28-year-old woman named Jyoti and her three young children, while her husband Ajay sustained minor injuries.

In another incident in the city's Chhawla area, three individuals suffered minor injuries following a wall collapse. Strong winds accompanying the rain disrupted daily life, affecting flight operations and causing significant traffic delays and waterlogging throughout the capital.

Local residents were deeply affected by the tragedy, calling for government intervention to support Ajay, who lost his family and home. The Delhi Fire Services responded promptly to distress calls but could not prevent the loss of life.
